TIM & TIGON
Young Reader's Edition of On The Trail of Genghis Khan
Adventurer Tim Cope had a childhood dream: to travel the 10,000 kilometres from Mongolia to Hungary on horseback - a journey undertaken centuries ago by the legendary leader of the Mongols, Genghis Khan. On this journey, Tim met a dog called Tigon.
For more than three years, Tim and Tigon endured searing heat and bitter cold; dark lonely nights when wolves circled their camp; hunger; despair; joy; and the wild beauty of the landscape that changed constantly around them. They met the people of the steppe, who welcomed Tim and Tigon into their homes, and shared their traditions and histories.
This is the story of a unique journey - a journey filled with the spirit of the pioneering explorers of old.
It is the story of an extraordinary friendship.
Tim Cope, National Geographic Adventure Honouree 2007 and Australian Adventurer of the Year 2006, lives in Victoria. He has pursued a life of adventure, writing and film. He speaks fluent Russian, and has spent years travelling through Russia, Mongolia, and Central Asia by bicycle, row boat, skis, horse, camel and many other means. He loves getting to know people in their home environments by travelling in traditional and local ways.
Through lectures, films and articles, Tim shares his experiences and personal discoveries with schools, organisations and community groups. He has completed an award-winning film series for ARTE in Europe, and ABC TV.
Tim returns to Mongolia annually to guide trips for World Expeditions.
